Storyline 2: Trying to adjust slide properties of all slides at once

Mar 16, 2015

Hi. I am trying to adjust slide properties of all slides at once in Storyline 2.

In Storyline 1 I was able to do this. I would go to 'story view', select Ctrl A and make the required change in the 'slide properties' box. When I do this in Storyline 2 the 'slide properties' disappears.

What am I doing wrong?

Hi guys. Thank you for taking the time to respond.

Hi Wendy. I have Storyline2 installed on my C drive, but the project files were on a separate drive. I've moved those files to the C drive, but it has not resolved the issue. I also did a reinstall with admin privileges as per the instructions in one of the links you sent, to no avail.

I haven't tried yet to make sure Microsoft .NET Framework is enabled and reinstall Adobe Flash Player (which is another tip for Windows 7 users in one of the links you provided). I do suspect that it could be a Flash issue, (given that I have had a previous Flash-related issue). I hope to try that step soon.

Hi Phil. I'm not selecting a question group. However, that's something I was unaware of and therefore a useful tip to remember!

Hopefully I can report back on a successful mission completed soon...  :)

Thanks again. Cheers.

Hi Scott,

I just wanted to offer a reminder that you'll always want to be working on local project files (typically housed on your C drive) as Wendy mentioned.  Working on a network drive or an external (USB) drive can cause erratic behavior, such as file corruption, an inability to save changes, and loss of resources which could be a par tof some of the odd behavior you have experienced and to try and resolve some of the issues with the files, you may want to look at importing it into a new file as described here.

Hi Wendy.

I tried it, but I still can't select multiple slides.

I also reinstalled Microsoft .NET Framework and Adobe Flash Player (which was one of the tips in the links you sent me).

Everything else with Storyline2 works well so it's not a big deal I guess.

Thanks again for looking at this for me.

Cheers,

Scott.
